Abstract

The 1983 national security law constitutes legislation specific to the regime of prior transition to the rule of law. If, on the one hand, some articles confront the current constitutional order, on the other hand, some provisions must be interpreted in accordance with the Federal Constitution, aiming at protecting acts that undermine the functioning of democratic institutions. In search of improvement, there are bills foreseen provisions in Defense of the Democratic Rule of Law. However, they need to be improved, either with new wording or with the inclusion of rules that protect new attacks on democracy.
